We will depart from Fes in the morning and travel south through the beautiful Middle Atlas Mountains.

After lunch in Midelt, we will continue through the breathtaking Ziz Valley, renowned for its vast palm groves and spectacular panoramic viewpoints.
Upon arriving in Merzouga in the late afternoon, you will enjoy a camel trek across the golden Erg Chebbi dunes to your desert camp, where you will witness a stunning sunset over the Sahara. The evening includes a delicious traditional Moroccan dinner, Berber music around the campfire, and an unforgettable night beneath a sky full of stars.
On the second day of our 4 day tour from Fes, after watching a beautiful sunrise over the dunes and enjoying breakfast, we will spend the day exploring the hidden treasures of the Merzouga Desert. We will visit local nomadic families to learn about their traditional way of life, explore the Mifis mines, and stop in the village of Khamlia, where you will enjoy the unique rhythms of traditional Gnawa music.

- Standard desert camp:
The standard camp is perfect for travelers seeking an authentic, back-to-basics desert adventure. It offers a rustic, budget-friendly experience.
The tents are comfortable and perfect for a nice sleep. The toilets and showers are shared with the whole camp.
- Luxury desert camp :
Luxury desert camps are definitely the best choice if you’re looking for a more exclusive and memorable stay in the desert.
Luxury camps are the best in offering premium comfort with spacious tents. Private bathrooms, different kinds of bed sizes ( king beds, double beds, twin beds, or single beds), and offering enhanced amenities like electricity, and Wi-Fi(though it may be limited due to the remote location).
Signal is available in Merzouga village and may be intermittent on the journey. In the desert camp, Wi-Fi is often available but can be limited due to the remote location, generally sufficient for messages and sharing photos, but not for streaming.

- Comfortable clothing plus some layers for cold desert nights.
- Sturdy shoes for walking on sand and rocky terrain.

Keep in Mind :
Morocco uses the double-pronged plugs common in Europe (type E – type C).
Both options are excellent:
- A private tour offers flexibility, personalized attention, and the freedom to explore at your own pace, ideal for couples, families, or those seeking an intimate experience.
- A group tour is more budget-friendly and a wonderful way to meet fellow travelers from around the world, sharing the adventure together. Choose what feels right for your travel style.
